REQ when do tankers leave?

Probably an "open door", but I wanted to make sure anyway. I see the current KC-135 detachment formally ends coming Friday, I presume that means they will all leave that Friday as well? By chance I will be in the area of Geilenkirchen coming Saturday, but if all tankers are goen I won't bother going...

Re: EHLW 11-04-2016 MIL, Frisian Flag

Indeed a nice day, and well done for the parking arrangements!

Just wanted to add that the four missing Tornado's and one F-15 were all visible from outside (F-15 from the hill and the Tonka's from the road). Didn't see the last Mirage 2000 or F-18, but as I didn't need those, I didn't look for them.

Re: Beauvechain (EBBE) - 2016 MIL

I might be wrong, but I think I remember there is a civil aircraft dumped there next to the FR33. It was clearly seen (and read off) during the spottersday last year. As it is civil, I didn't write it down, but I'm sure somebody can help here?

Re: Frisian Flag 11-22 April 2016

Hi all, First of all thanks for all the shared info here, much appreciated! I am thinking of visiting Leeuwarden coming Monday, but as this is the first day of the exercise: will there be two missions or maybe just one in the afternoon? Didn't see a schedule yet, hence the question. Thanks in advance!

Re: Port visits to NL, 2016

Hangar of Bazan was open again and the Seahawk is visible from the shore. H-3 is inside and not visible unfortunately, while visits aboard are politely refused because if "security concerns".
This was the status on Sunday morning 10:15 h.

Re: Port visits to NL, 2016

Are the hangar doors open, so they are still visible from outside?

Re: Hsinchu AFB Taiwan F-5E decoys

Hi Orange,
Not a Scramble subscriber? ;-) In issue 437 my log of Taiwan was posted, including the six decoys present at the time. There were indeed 5153, 5171, 5221, 5307, 5309 and 5330. No 5236. However, 5153 had 50326 on the tail as well (the former US serial), possibly that's what you saw?
